Opening in 1898 on the site of the 1875 wooden Ferry House, the Ferry Building became the transportation hub for anyone arriving by train from the East, as well as from all the East Bay and Marin residents who worked in the city. From the Gold Rush until the 1930s, arrival by ferryboat was the only way travelers could reach the city from the East. All but abandoned in the 60s and 70s, the Ferry Building was remodeled and again hums as a transportation hub and busy gourmet marketplace for the city. The Marketplace, organized along the central Nave, provides a distinctive space for bringing together the greater Bay Area's agricultural wealth and renowned specialty food purveyors under one roof. The exterior and main public hall have been restored to their original grandeur for use by ferry passengers and the public at large.

Description
The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate - the opening of the San Francisco Bay onto the Pacific Ocean. Its name has nothing to do with its color, chosen by the Navy, but refers to the span of water. As part of both U.S. Route 101 and State Route 1, it connects the city of San Francisco on the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula to Marin County. The Golden Gate Bridge was the longest suspension bridge span in the world when it was completed during the year 1937 and has become an internationally recognized symbol of San Francisco.
